Mithkal
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The mithkal (in Persian and Arabic: مثقال) is a unit of weight that is used in Iran, mostly for weighing gold. It is equivalent to a little under 5 grams.
The word mithkal is sometimes also used to mean a very small amount, due to its use in the Quran in this way.
